"which-pkg-broke aptitude" also suggests apt (besides libcwidget): libapt-pkg4.12:i386 Mon Nov 25 12:15:28 2013 libcwidget3 Mon Nov 25 12:19:22 2013 But downgrading apt didn't help on a first for me. Maybe I need to make sure that the terminal mode is definitely reset before trying again. So this helped finally: Downgrading all packages built from the apt source package, exiting the screen session in which aptitude was running, calling reset in the xterm, starting screen again and aptitude again. > The problem is also reproducible with apt-get rather than aptitude, > in a quite minimal pbuilder chroot.
